Judgments rendered in family court cases are appealable by the same means and standards as rulings on other types of matters, but the personal nature of legal matters involving families creates other factors that eager appellants may want to consider. Michele Jochner, a Partner at Schiller DuCanto & Fleck LLP, is experienced with advising her clients on the nuances, both legal and emotional, that should be taken into account when considering the appeal of decisions impacting visitation, finances, and more.
Michele recently presented "How To Prepare Your Divorce Case for Potential Appeal" as part of Business Valuation, Financial, and Tax Issues in Divorce 2025. Available now for online on-demand viewing.
